Our residential care home is located within a rural Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Streatley, Berkshire. 10 miles west of Reading, and 17 miles from the centre of Newbury. The village of Goring is nearby, linked to Streatley by an iconic bridge over the River Thames. This stunning location features picturesque views of the Swan Hotel, the river, the weirs, and Goring Lock, along with breathtaking views of the surrounding Oxfordshire countryside and the Goring Gap.
It is immediately obvious to us that all the staff at Coombe House care deeply about their residents. They were endlessly positive and thoughtful, finding out what my mother enjoyed and arranging special trips for her. In addition, they not only helped her with the basic of care but also with things like the TV and skype when they became to complicated for her. As she became increasingly anxious and confused it was a huge relief to all of us that she was able to end her days in the comfort of familiar surroundings rather than in hospital. We could not recommend The Coombe House highly enough.
- Susanne W (Daughter of resident)
The home is run very much as a family environment and has a wonderful atmosphere. Visitors are welcome at anytime and always offered refreshments and if required an update on the resident's well being. The staff are always professional but also how great affection for the residents. An excellent home from home.
- Philippa T (Daughter of resident)
The care provided for my mother was excellent. They combine high standards and expectations of themselves with a genuine desire to provide a caring, secure, balanced community spirit. Residents are genuinely treated with dignity and respect.
- Amanda A (Daughter of resident)
Coombe house has provided my mother with a happy, safe, and homely environment. The home has a very relaxed atmosphere with very friendly and able staff. Coombe House is family run and feels that way. Marion and Suzanne are always around to chat to and catch up with how mum is doing. This is the best decision we made with mum (and she wholeheartedly agrees!).
- Morag W (Daughter of resident)
The staff are highly professional, their dealings with residents are caring and kind. The food is excellent and nothing is too much trouble. Activities are organised and frequent, and consultations with both residents and relatives are held several times a year and actioned. I cannot rate them too highly, from the owners to the cleaners etc - all are cheerful and welcoming. The place smells clean and none of the usual odours are there!
- Ann Briggs (Daughter of resident)
Our mother went to live at The Coombe House in January 2011, not in the best of health, and was looked after by their wonderful staff with great care and affection, living to the grand age of 101 and passing away in September 2013 peacefully in her own bed, and with friends around her. We cannot praise the home too highly, they provided a lovely 'home from home' with comfortable surroundings, good food, and company always at hand. They were unfailingly helpful and welcoming to her frequent visitors and we always felt that we were part of the extended family in the warm atmosphere they provided.
